Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress

Chapter 885: Is this even right?

"I can't! I don't bet on unfair bets! How can Max take on the basketball team when most of the players are now playing in the professional major league?! I do betting pools, but this is not morally right!"

Sports gambling or betting, in general, was already a huge topic of debate- whether it was morally acceptable or a moral disaster. So, what Penny said contradicted itself. However, people didn't focus on that.

Everyone slowly shifted their eyes to Hugo and the basketball team, with whom Max was arguing.

"She's right, though," one person commented quietly. "Although not all of them pursued basketball, the majority of them are professional players, including the captain and even a few who are in the starting five lineups."

"They've also won championships a few times."

"Besides, Max didn't pursue basketball and stopped playing after that game twelve years ago. So, even if Max was good in the past, I don't think he's still as good as he was before."

"This is overkill, and I don't think anyone here would find it fun to watch a game like that."

"Is it really that overkill?"

"Of course! Even if Atlas played, he wouldn't need to do anything if four of his team members are star players."

"Oh, so it's easy money?"

"The money isn't what actually matters here, but the fun of it."

Listening to the crowd's opinions, Penny secretly smiled in satisfaction. She started this argument with Hugo and Max, so she had to put a stop to it as well. However, just as she was mentally giggling to herself, Ginnie suddenly spoke.

"If that's the case, then Hugo and Max, are you okay with settling this by apologizing to each other?" Ginnie asked, but what she received from both men and the basketball team was a resounding "NO!"
